Serous cystadenoma is a rare lesion in the para-testicular tissue, with even rarer reports of this entity occurring in the scrotum post-orchidopexy. We present such an occurrence, adding support for its existence as a distinct entity.

Background: Müllerian cysts of the posterior mediastinum are rare, benign lesions typically discovered incidentally via routine medical exams.

Case Presentation: We present a distinctive case of a 49-year-old asymptomatic woman, illustrating a rare Müllerian cyst located in the posterior mediastinum with serous papillary cystadenoma-like features, a novel finding in the medical literature. Identified during a routine health screening in December 2020, a 20 mm cystic lesion adjacent to the T4-5 vertebral body was detected through chest CT and MRI, initially suggesting a neurogenic tumor.

Whereas pancreatic masses are often difficult to detect with transabdominal ultrasound, cross-sectional imaging features high sensitivity for the pancreatic tumors. However, increasing availability of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has led to a surge in the detection of benign or precancerous pancreatic lesions. The medical history is characteristic only for two entities.

Background: Distinguishing serous cystadenoma, a benign pancreatic cyst, from potentially malignant mucinous pancreatic cystic lesions carries significant clinical and prognostic implications; and while endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration is the standard diagnostic tool, its low diagnostic yield often results in additional workup.

Objective: This study evaluates diagnostic yield of fine needle biopsy (FNB) on lesions suggestive of serous cystadenoma on endoscopic ultrasound.

Methods: Patients with microcystic EUS appearance were identified through retrospective chart review in two institutions.

A 67-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with jaundice. A closer examination revealed that he had obstructive jaundice due to bile duct obstruction caused by a multifocal cystic tumor of the pancreas. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) revealed stenosis of the distal bile duct and leakage of contrast medium into the pancreatic cyst.

Article Synopsis
  • - Ovarian tumors in children are rare, occurring at a rate of 2.6 per 100,000, with symptoms often including abdominal pain and the need for thorough diagnostic evaluation using imaging like pelvic ultrasounds.
  • - A 15-year-old girl presented with a six-month history of an enlarging abdominal mass and negative tumor markers, leading to an ultrasound and MRI that revealed a large cystic mass occupying her abdomen and pelvis.
  • - She underwent laparoscopic surgery to remove the cyst, which involved draining 6 liters of fluid and preserving part of her left ovary; follow-up care is ongoing.
